Despite having a paid plan, I find that the upload to VCL is very, very slow even after not including the time needed to resave and recompile the viewlet before pushing it to the server.

If I transfer similar-sized files elsewhere, they zip along and so I'm pretty sure it isn't an uplink bandwidth issue.

How does one improve the VCL upload speed? (Really, the question is rhetorical. I am implying a need for an architectural change on the server side to first upload the content and then post-process it there rather than sending and processing it simultaneously...)
